Strengthening community health: Nexus Primary Health and Sunbury and Cobaw Community Health to explore a merger

Nexus Primary Health (Nexus) and Sunbury and Cobaw Community Health (SCCH) are excited to share the first step to explore the creation of a stronger, more resilient community health service for people who live in Hume, Macedon Ranges, Mitchell, Murrindindi and Strathbogie local government areas. On Monday 13 January 2025, Nexus transitioned to a governance structure led by SCCH. While both organisations remain separate entities, they will be governed by the same board, and Nexus’ Chief Executive Officer will report to SCCH’s Chief Executive Officer, allowing the organisations to better explore the potential community benefits of a merger.

From Wednesday, 1 January 2025, the Commonwealth Home Support Programme (CHSP) contract for the Mitchell, Strathbogie, and Murrindindi local government areas will transfer to Sunbury & Cobaw Community Health (SCCH).  While SCCH will manage the contract, Nexus Primary Health will continue delivering most CHSP services through a subcontract model.
